    I think my record is 6 days - but that was when I was a student, had no money in the bank or in cash so I didn't have a choice! Makes it easier to have a no spend day when you have literally nothing to spend!

    I think my record now that I'm working is 3 days. Getting more than 1 is rare these days though!
